Description: USN-975-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox and Xulrunner. Some users reported stability problems under certain circumstances. This update fixes the problem. We apologize for the inconvenience. Original advisory details: Several dangling pointer vulnerabilities were discovered in Firefox. An attacker could exploit this to crash the browser or possibly run arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. Blake Kaplan and Michal Zalewski discovered several weaknesses in the XPCSafeJSObjectWrapper security wrapper. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious site, a remote attacker could use this to run arbitrary JavaScript with chrome privileges. Matt Haggard discovered that Firefox did not honor same-origin policy when processing the statusText property of an XMLHttpRequest object.

An attacker could utilize this to perform cross-site scripting attacks. Paul Stone discovered that with designMode enabled an HTML selection containing JavaScript could be copied and pasted into a document and have the JavaScript execute within the context of the site where the code was dropped. An attacker could utilize this to perform cross-site scripting attacks. A buffer overflow was discovered in Firefox when processing text runs. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious site, a remote attacker could use this to crash the browser or possibly run arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. Peter Van der Beken, Jason Oster, Jesse Ruderman, Igor Bukanov, Jeff Walden, Gary Kwong and Olli Pettay discovered several flaws in the browser engine. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious site, a remote attacker could use this to crash the browser or possibly run arbitrary code as the user invoking the program
